An 18-year-old boy from Maharashtra's Solapur died by suicide after posting a "end is beginning" note on Instagram.
The boy, identified as Yogesh Ashok Khyage, was found hanging by his parents when they returned home after visiting a relative's house on Saturday.
Yogesh, a resident of Sushil Nagar, used to work at a bakery.
He is survived by his father - who is employed as a watchman, his mother, and his sister.
Shortly before dying by suicide, Yogesh uploaded a story on Instagram in which he wrote: "Marne se pehle sabke dilon se utar jaana hai mujhe, taaki mere marne ke baad koi mujhe yaad na kare" (Before dying, I have to descend from everyone's hearts so that after my death no one remembers me).
He also wrote on his Instagram profile: "The end is the beginning of existence".
Yogesh's parents and relatives rushed him to a nearby hospital, where the doctors declared him dead on arrival.
Police have begun an investigation to determine the reasons behind the suicide.
